Third Power was an American psychedelic hard rock band from Detroit, Michigan, who released one album in 1970.
The group was formed in 1969, and became a prominent local club band before signing to Vanguard Records.[1][2] Guitarist Drew Abbott and bassist Jem Targal shared singing duties.[3] They released an album, Believe, on the label in 1970.
